Salt

Wuthering Heights is a wild, passionate story of the intense and almost demonic love between Catherine Earnshaw and Heathcliff, a foundling adopted by Catherine's father. After Mr Earnshaw's death, Heathcliff is bullied and humiliated by Catherine's brother Hindley and wrongly believing that his love for Catherine is not reciprocated, leaves. I am a 'Wuthering Heights' nut and have seen most of the film adaptations, some several times. For me, this is one of the best. At first, I thought Ralph Feinnes was far too pretty to play Heathcliff, but he is an extraordinary actor and quickly slouched into Heathcliff's angry animalism.

Review by usa prog music

Hailing from Denmark, Wuthering Heights has been releasing their brand of prog metal since 1999. Salt is their fifth album, and although little new ground seems to be broken, and they wear their influences on their sleeves, I just can't help but like this album. Salt is not so much a concept album with a unified story, but a collection of songs around the common themes of the ocean and sea-faring pirates.

'Desperate Poet' is a strong opening track ? lots of lyrics, powerful vocals and frenetic tempos all served up with gusto and passion lets the listener know exactly what's in store for the rest of the album.

'Mad Sailor' has a weird sort of Scottish sea-shanty flavor. Hard to take too seriously with its sing-along choruses?yet it's all in the nature of the concept. 'Last Tribe' and 'Tears' are more mid-tempo rockers. Things get a little more interesting with 'Weather the Storm' which features an atmospheric opening reminiscent of Trans-Siberian Orchestra. 'The Field' and 'Water of Life' continue with the maritime themes; the latter being the acoustic ballad of the album.

The final track, 'Lost at Sea', is where the band pull out all the stops. This sixteen-minute epic seems to have just about everything. Combining the best of Gamma Ray, Rhapsody of Fire, Crimson Glory, Savatage and Iron Maiden, Wuthering Heights combines everything into one epic story-song that effortlessly goes from up-tempo rock to atmospheric acoustic interludes and back again.

As I said at the outset, the band wears their influences on their sleeves, yet they breathe so much life into their material that one can't help but be carried along. If you're a fan of any of the bands I've mentioned in this review, then Wuthering Heights is for you!

Wuthering Heights Movie 2009

The third adaptation of Emily Bronte's classic tale of love and vengeance on the Yorkshire moors, this had the deck stacked against it from the start: there was the 'controversial' casting of unknown stage-treader Ralph Fiennes and French actrice Juliette Binoche in the lead roles, while the 1939 version starring Sir Larry and Merle Oberon is enshrined in the public's conscience as a romantic evergreen.

Indeed, given this risky undertaking, it's tempting to call the final result an admirable failure, when damp squib comes closer to the mark. That said, when a cloaked Sinead O'Connor, as Emily Bronte, the film's narrator, first comes stalking across the moors accompanied by Ryiuchi Sakamoto's haunting score, you're ready to toss all jaded scepticism out the window and believe anything for almost two hours.

Initially Kosminsky's atmospheric evocation of windswept moors and bleak interiors is encouraging, but any lurking promise is snuffed out somewhere between O'Connor and Binoche's first Goldie Hawn-ish giggling fit as the teenage Cathy. The fatal flaw lies not in the two leads - Binoche is suitably headstrong and freespirited, while Fiennes' Heathcliff is all brooding torment - but in trying to cram the whole of a particularly complex novel into two hours. With no time to build up the fiery emotional bond between the duo, Heathcliff's second-half unleashing of ghastly revenge is all rather tedious and nasty, so that, rather than being empathetic, he comes across as a barking-mad pain in the rear.
